The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 865

Sophia responded with an affirmative hum and said, “Well, I guess that’s not a bad thing either.”

Old Mrs. Constance frowned. “That brat must have bunked down somewhere else.”

Despite the old lady’s harsh words, Sophia knew what Old Mrs. Constance meant by that. In fact, John and his father had one thing in common, which was that they were both nostalgic and faithful men. Besides spending the night at Matilda’s place, it wasn’t likely that he was playing around with other women some place else. I guess Old Mrs. Constance understands that anyway.

In the meantime, John arrived at his office and attended a meeting after taking care of his work. Before the meeting began, Dylan, who was one of the attendees, was approached by John with a question. “Have you been in touch with the Bailey Family lately?”

Dylan was caught by surprise upon hearing John’s question. “Y-Yeah, of course. Their orders just keep coming.”

John rephrased his question. “That’s not what I meant. Let me put it this way, perhaps. Have you been in touch with Isabelle lately?”

After that, John instructed his man to investigate the culprit’s recent whereabouts and anyone else he had ever met. Besides, he also told them to focus on the places that he had been to before. Justice always prevails. Let’s see how long he can keep his tracks covered because I swear I’ll get to the bottom of this matter.

Upon hanging up the call, John stepped out of his office and headed to William’s office. Man! I’ve been dying to hear some stories from Dad throughout the morning. Thanks to my busy schedule, here is finally my chance! Meanwhile, William was passionately engrossed in his work, even though he appeared to be busy.

When John opened the door and walked in, William looked up and shot a gaze at him. Upon witnessing his father’s reaction, John couldn’t help but think there was something fishy that William was hiding from him. After all, William didn’t always behave like that, so John approached closer and stood before him. Without saying anything, he merely just laughed and stared at William, making the latter feel uncomfortably awkward.
